Have You Ever Served as an Attendant? Share Your Stories!
by Funchback ini remember being a jw lad (about 10 or 11 years old).
i would be at the circuit assembly and, at around 10:45 am, about 8 brothers would get up, walk slowly up the aisle, glancing at each row of their "section", their lips quivering as they silently count each person, trying to maintain focus as nearly each jw makes eye contact them (even though everyone knew what the attendants were doing!
did i want to grow up to be the president of the united states?

Hello to all who knew me...
by Joyzabel inas i sit here addressing my xmas cards for this year and think of all the people who have helped me on my jouney this past 7 years and especially the past 3, i thought i would post a thread letting people who knew me know how i am and what i have been up to this past year.. .
it will soon be 2 years since i moved from florida to atlanta, ga. even though it was going back to full time work, i love my job and am glad i have one.. .
i acknowledge that my therapy has helped me to get my mind untangled from being raised in a high control group and from being married to an alcoholic.

The age of Enlightenment seems to be over.
by Norm inan excellent british author francis wheen has written a humorous yet very serious book on how enlightenment has lost out to what he calls ?mumbo jumbo among most people.. in his book ?how mumbo jumbo conquered the world a short history of modern delutions?

Got To Toughen Up These Cats Of Mine..
by Englishman inyes, from now on the cat flap remains on exit only between 8.30 - 4.30 pm, every day.. george & poppy have become spoilt, lazy, hair distributing, under your feet, pain in the ass puddy cats.. it all started with me taking a few weeks convalescence.
the house has been kept warm, i've been around to feed the little buggers on demand and they've taken me for a ride.
they even get pissy when i throw them off the couch now when i want to put me feet up to watch the telly.
